Can you please add the reference of the workaround in a comment

[Chen, Angus]

The original workaround was from 
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/533574/
Then, we don't apply WA to VDBOX, VEBOX and RENDER engine with
the following patch 
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/543117/?series=119517&rev=1
But now we need this WA to cover VDBOX.

As far as I know media team confirmed that there is no perf impact and this WA can be removed. As Andi said, reference would be help here.

Wa_14018778641 says that we need to disable the FTLB for Compute,
Render, GSC, VDBox and VEBox engines, but here we are doing it
only for GSC and VDBox, why?

Besides, in MTL we have the media GT where the MOD_CTRL family
has address 0x38cf34. Should this be checked and included, as
well?

Thanks,
Andi

I realize that the comment farther up in the code is wrong, but there's
no such workaround as "Wa_14018778641."  14018778641 is just an internal
database ID that isn't meaningful for tracking workarounds in code.
Workarounds are always identified by their "lineage" number, which is
the number that will identify the workaround in a consistent manner
across multiple platforms.  In this case it sounds like the expected
workaround number was actually Wa_14018575942.

Wa_14018575942 (which is a follow-up to an older Wa_18018781329), was
originally supposed to apply to all engines.  But after some
investigation, the hardware teams decided that it was _probably_ only
needed on the CCS engines so they suggested dropping the workaround from
other engine types to reclaim performance unless we started seeing
functional issues when doing so.  At some point someone did report some
functional issues with the RCS engine, so the workaround got restored
there.  Based on this patch, it sounds like the media team is now
reporting that they also see functional failures on the VD engines
without the workaround, so it also needs to be restored there now.

The gt pointer passed into xelpmp_gt_workarounds_init() is always the
media GT.  And the GSI offset of 0x380000 gets added into the register
offset automatically so you don't need to worry about doing so manually.

Indeed... should this be updated accordingly?

But I don't see it documented. Wa_14018575942 only speaks about
the GSC_MOD_CTL. We need it documented, otherwise we need a note
in the comment explaining why this workaround is needed here, as
well.

Otherwise, as it happened in other cases, someone might open this
workaround, think it's wrong and revert this patch.

Angus, can you please explain the reason why this workaround is
needed here and put it in a comment?

Yeah, it would definitely be good to update this since it's caused
confusion multiple times in the past as well.

Documented in the workaround database you mean?  The description there
seems pretty clear to me --- they indicate that although the hardware
issue theoretically existed on all engines, their belief was that only
the CCS engines could generate the kind of memory traffic necessary to
cause problems, so the initial suggestion was to implement it only on
the CCS engine.  However the workaround also provides the details for
how to implement it on all the other engine types if necessary in case
real-world usage uncovers corner cases that wind up needing it.

Maybe we should try to get them to update the language a bit now that we
have reports that at least RCS and VCS do indeed seem to need the
workaround in real-world usage.

[PATCH v3] drm/i915/mtl: Update workaround 14018575942

[Chen, Angus]

The WA should be extended to cover VDBOX engine. We found that
28-channels 1080p VP9 encoding may hit this issue.

v3: update the WA number and explain the reason why
    this workaround is needed
v2: add WA number
v1: initial version

14018778641 is not a workaround number.  The only lineage numbers that
are relevant to this programming are Wa_18018781329 (for DG2) and
Wa_14018575942 (for MTL/ARL).  Even though other things like internal
tickets and work tracking records have similar numbers we should not be
mixing those up with the actual workaround (lineage) numbers.

[PATCH] drm/i915/mtl: Update workaround 14018778641

[Tejas Upadhyay]

Applying WA 14018778641 only on Compute engine has impact on
some apps like chrome. Updating this WA to apply on Render
engine as well as it is helping with performance on Chrome.

Note: There is no concern from media team thus not applying
WA on media engines. We will revisit if any issues reported
from media team.
